i designed a new pride flag for the queer community and shared svg images of it on my repo: gay

Queer Symmetry Flag

The Queer Symmetry Flag combines queer pride flags in an attempt to represent all queer identities in an elegant new design.

In contrast to other flags, this one builds onto the Transgender Flag which represents all queer gender identities, and so:

The pattern is such that no matter which way you fly it, it is always correct, signifying us finding correctness in our lives.

~Monica Helms [53]

A rainbow, representing all queer sexual identities and romantic identities, refracts through the Transgender Flag, symbolizing the interconnections of gender, sexuality, and romanticality, how gender identity can shape sexual and romantic identities.

Brown and black stripes, representing black, indigenous, (and) people of color (BIPOC), extend from the inner part of the refracted rainbow, wrapping around the Intersex Flag, which "symbolizes the right to be who and how we want to be" in the fight "for bodily autonomy and genital integrity" of all intersex people (Morgan Carpenter).[23][24][25]

In some versions of The Queer Symmetry Flag, the Transgender Flag peeks through the area containing the Intersex Flag, symbolizing the interconnections between intersex identity and gender identity, how intersex people can identify as trans-feminine, trans-masculine, non-binary, or something else entirely.

The Queer Symmetry Flag exists in three main variants

• classic style, triangular design
• alternative style, a unique new hexagonal design
• heart style, a unique new heart-shaped alternative design

There are a few versions of each style, including a simplified version in which the Intersex Flag fills the area containing it.

Those who previously had access to gender-affirming care are being notified that their care will no longer be provided.

To clarify, the pictured poster Caroline Kwan is an ally, not a TERF. The TERFs referred to in the title are the ones ‘protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is’

Via Pics on Reddit as "Italian right wing prime minister Giorgia Meloni reacts to two girls kissing at the olympics"

• Gay Olympic judo athlete wins gold and celebrates by kissing her girlfriend - Team LGBTQ's Alice Bellandi brought Italy its first Olympic gold medal in judo since 2008 in scintillating fashion.

• Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at the South Paris Arena for the Italy 🆚 Netherlands match

• Italian far-right government limits parental rights of same-sex couples - Gay rights activists on Tuesday denounced as homophobic moves by Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni’s far-right-led government to limit recognition of parental rights to the biological parent only in the case of same-sex parents.

Post was originally titled "Lesbian Kiss at the Olympics / Far Right Italian Prime Minister Reaction" but the pictures are unlikely to have been taken at the same event.

Hello!

I created a new LGBTQIA+ community for French speakers:

!fierte_lgbtqia_plus@lemmy.ca

However, being a cis-gender, heterosexual male, I don't know if I'm the best candidate to moderate this community. I want to make this a safe space for everybody and I want everyone to be able to express themselves freely, without judgement. I would really like to get some help to moderate this space.

I was wondering if there was anyone in this community who would be willing to volunteer? The only requirements would be to be francophone or very fluent in French and identify as someone who is as part of the LGBTQIA+.

Votre aide sera grandement apprécié! :)

I tried to ask a another youtuber Living Anachronism who has worked with Shadiversity if he knew about Shad's homophobic content & the mod delete my question, told me asking about that was against the no drama rule, that it wasn't homophobic & proceeded to try to gaslight me with pseudo-intellectual bullshit.

I'm tired of bringing thing up in non queer spaces only to be told that's it not actually homophobic.

The original video I referred to:https://youtu.be/GiyMDN9j2OU?si=bDqnc1pCG8t3HASp

Of those who discontinued medical treatments such as hormone therapy, a new study found that 80 percent continued to endorse a trans identity.

The original scene goes as follows

Sam: It's just... sometimes the world can be a scary place. It's hard to know who's dangerous or not.

Nightshade: Hmm, that's true, though dissapointing.

Sam: Hey, it's ok. I know I'm safe when I'm with my friends or other non-binary people.

Nightshade: Non-binary?

Sam: People who aren't female or male. Oh I'm sorry, I shouldn't have assumed.

Nightshade: I always felt my pronouns felt right, but what a wonderful word for a wonderful experience.

the one on BBC iplayer goes like this:

Sam: It's just... sometimes the world can be a scary place. It's hard to know who's dangerous or not.

Nightshade: Hmm, that's true, though dissapointing.

Sam: Hey, it's ok. I know I'm safe when I'm with my friends.

[second of awkward silence as the audio was removed but nothing was added back in and then it cuts to the next scene]

to fellow brits you can see the edited scene here, 10:15 seconds in: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0g9f9cn/transformers-earthspark-series-1-17-home-part-1?seriesId=unsliced
